In the title compound, C24H20N6O, the pyridin-3-yl groups on the ethylene fragment are found in a trans conformation with a C(py)—C(e)—C(e)—C(py) (py = pyridine, e = ethylene) torsion angle of 179.2 (3)°. The dihedral angle between the pyridine rings is 3.5 (1)°. In the crystal, N—H⋯N and C—H⋯O=C interactions form a layer arrangement parallel to the bc plane. The compound displays disorder of the ethylene fragment over two positions with an occupancy ratio of 0.676 (7) to 0.324 (7) that extends into the amide section of the nicotinamide moiety.

The synthesis of the title compound included reagent grade starting materials and solvents. A mixture of 2 ml of pyridine-3-carboxaldehyde and 8.17 g of ammonium acetate was heated to 120 °C under stirring for 3 h. The reaction mixture was cooled and diluted with dichloromethane (50 ml), washed with water (3 x 30 ml) dried over MgSO4 and rotary evaporated, and crystallized by gas phase diffusion of diethyl ether into dichloromethane, providing yellow crystals.

H atoms were included in calculated positions (C—H = 0.93 Å for aromatic H, C—H = 0.97 Å for methyn H), and refined using a riding model, with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq of the
H atoms on N were located in a Fourier map and refined with Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(N).The disorder was modelled by splitting atoms with the highest prolate anisotropic displacement parameters (ADPs) into two components; the naming convention used involved appending a "B" suffix to the index number, such that O1, C9 and C10 became O1B, C9B and C10B. To ensure a sensible geometry for the disordered model, the bond distances and angles along the ethylene and carbonyl moieties were restrained to be similar (instructions SAME and SADI), and the ADPs of the disordered atoms were also restrained to be similar (instruction SIMU), with an s.u. value of 0.01 Å2. Subject to these conditions, the refined occupancies for the two major components were 0.676 (7) for the ethylene moiety and 0.61 (6) for the oxygen atom.
The positions and displacement parameters of the rest of the atoms are sufficiently well defined to allow for a
without any additional positional or similarity restraints.1,2-Diaryl-1,2-diaminoethanes have long been used as complexation agents for transition metal ions (House & Sadler, 1973; Koçak, 2000; Nyburg & Wood, 1964). These compounds are also important building blocks in the design of enantioselective catalysts (Corey & Kühnle, 1997; Corey et al., 1989; Jacobsen et al., 1990). The synthesis of diamines involves the reaction of aromatic
with ammonia to produce hydrobenzamides and amarine (2,4,5-triphenyl-2,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole).For some time we have been interested in the coordination chemistry of polypyridine ligands which may have fluorescent properties, could act as sensors for transition metal ions, or could be used as building blocks for the construction of different coordination polymers. Some of the compounds that have been studied for this purposes are: cis-(±)-2,4,5-tri(2-pyridyl)imidazoline (Parra-Hake et al., 2000), 2,4,6-tri(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazinane, 2,4,5-tri(2-pyridyl)imidazole, trans-(±)-2,4,5-tri(4-pyridyl)imidazoline and 2,4,5-tri(4-pyridyl)imidazole (Cruz Enríquez et al., 2012, Koçak, 2000).
As a part of our ongoing research on the chemistry of polypyridine ligands, in our attempts to synthesize the ligand cis-(±)-3-(2,5-di(pyridin-3-yl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-4-yl)pyridine, we have been able to isolate the title compound, (E)—N-(1,2-di(pyridin-3-yl)-2-(pyridin-3-ylmethyleneamino)ethyl)nicotinamide (I). 1,2-diaryl-1,2-diaminoethane analogues to the title compound are obtained from the reactions of aromatic benzaldehydes with ammonia (Irving & Parkins, 1965; Proskurnina et al., 2002; Tu et al., 2009). The structure of the title compound I with the atom numbering is shown in Figure 1.
In the title compound I, C24H20N6O, the ethylene fragment presents a
conformation between the two pyridin-3-yl groups with a torsion angle of 179.2 (3)° [C27—C10—C9—C21], and the nicotinamide groups presents a torsion angle of 175.1 (3)° [N1—C10—C9—N8].Compound I has an imine group with a C—N distance of 1.329 (4) Å and the
is stabilized by hydrogen bonds (N—H···N and C—H···O=C). The hydrogen bond between the carboxyl group and the C—H bond produces a centrosymmetric dimer with a H···O distance of 2.25 Å. The dimers are further connected by N—H···N interactions between the imine group and one pyridine N-atom, and these interactions give rise to a layer arrangement parallel to the bc plane. The ethylene group (C9—C10) and the oxygen (O1) atom exhibit a statistical orientational disorder, Figure 3. The statistical fractions of the major and minor disordered components refined to 0.676 (7) and 0.324 (7) for the ethylene group (C9—C10), and 0.61 (6) and 0.39 (6) for the oxygen atom (O1).For supramolecular structures, see: Nyburg & Wood (1964); House & Sadler (1973); Koçak (2000).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

1,2-Diaryl-1,2-diaminoethanes have long been used as complexation agents for transition metal ions (House & Sadler, 1973; Koçak, 2000; Nyburg & Wood, 1964). These compounds are also important building blocks in the design of enantioselective catalysts (Corey & Kühnle, 1997; Corey et al., 1989; Jacobsen et al., 1990). The synthesis of diamines involves the reaction of aromatic aldehydes with ammonia to produce hydrobenzamides and amarine (2,4,5-triphenyl-2,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole).
For some time we have been interested in the coordination chemistry of polypyridine ligands which may have fluorescent properties, could act as sensors for transition metal ions, or could be used as building blocks for the construction of different coordination polymers. Some of the compounds that have been studied for this purposes are: cis-(±)-2,4,5-tri(2-pyridyl)imidazoline (Parra-Hake et al., 2000), 2,4,6-tri(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazinane, 2,4,5-tri(2-pyridyl)imidazole, trans-(±)-2,4,5-tri(4-pyridyl)imidazoline and 2,4,5-tri(4-pyridyl)imidazole (Cruz Enríquez et al., 2012, Koçak, 2000).
As a part of our ongoing research on the chemistry of polypyridine ligands, in our attempts to synthesize the ligand cis-(±)-3-(2,5-di(pyridin-3-yl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-4-yl)pyridine, we have been able to isolate the title compound, (E)—N-(1,2-di(pyridin-3-yl)-2-(pyridin-3-ylmethyleneamino)ethyl)nicotinamide (I). 1,2-diaryl-1,2-diaminoethane analogues to the title compound are obtained from the reactions of aromatic benzaldehydes with ammonia (Irving & Parkins, 1965; Proskurnina et al., 2002; Tu et al., 2009). The structure of the title compound I with the atom numbering is shown in Figure 1.
In the title compound I, C24H20N6O, the ethylene fragment presents a trans conformation between the two pyridin-3-yl groups with a torsion angle of 179.2 (3)° [C27—C10—C9—C21], and the nicotinamide groups presents a torsion angle of 175.1 (3)° [N1—C10—C9—N8].
Compound I has an imine group with a C—N distance of 1.329 (4) Å and the crystal structure is stabilized by hydrogen bonds (N—H···N and C—H···O=C). The hydrogen bond between the carboxyl group and the C—H bond produces a centrosymmetric dimer with a H···O distance of 2.25 Å. The dimers are further connected by N—H···N interactions between the imine group and one pyridine N-atom, and these interactions give rise to a layer arrangement parallel to the bc plane. The ethylene group (C9—C10) and the oxygen (O1) atom exhibit a statistical orientational disorder, Figure 3. The statistical fractions of the major and minor disordered components refined to 0.676 (7) and 0.324 (7) for the ethylene group (C9—C10), and 0.61 (6) and 0.39 (6) for the oxygen atom (O1).
